Your Relationship with Your Man's Mistress

It's quite the senseless act for women get preoccupied with the woman their man has cheated with.  Women make all kinds of bullshit comparisons and assumptions regarding mistresses. Thus, so much so that now, you haphazardly have a relationship with the mistress.

The Allegory of Two Baths

By the time one is an adult they have had enough bullshit debates to draw a few lines in the sand. One case I find myself visiting a couple of times a year is one of hygiene: to bathe or to shower which one is better, gets you cleaner? Are you a body splasher or a puddle dweller? But before you step to your moral high-grounds, there are other more specious, more dubious forms of cleansing to consider. We can look to women of the night to bring something innovative to the hygiene debate. I present: the allegory of two baths.

Tragedy du Jour

As the technologically savvy parts of the planet watches Japan during it's devastating time, am I an asshole for wondering what else is going on with the rest of the world? I want the Japanese to rise from the tragedy of an earthquake, tsunami, and now nuclear reactor meltdown. Thus, in the same way I wanted the Haitians to recover, to lift the spirits of New Orleans residents, well wish tsunami victims of Sumatra Indonesia and wanted those in Pennsylvania/DC/ New York to heal and be cared for. But I also would like to know about other things that are taking place with the rest of the planet. Must I have to watch news of this latest horror on every channel and read about it endlessly? To me the quantity and quality of coverage of most natural disasters and (on occasion) high profile terrorist act received is in my view is a bit perverse.

Bullsh*t Atheists

This one goes out to all the atheists I know. I love y'all!

I have been to a few different kinds churches: Catholic, Baptist, Pentecostal, Holiness. Non-churches: Kingdom Hall, Mosque, and Synagogue. I do not claim to be a biblical scholar or to even have half the answers. But will say that at different points in the my life I have been curious about the happenings at places of worship. I do believe in a supreme being I will call God for the sake of having an identifiable label. This post isn't about those who claim a religion as much as those who claim NOT to have a religion. Atheists are funny in that they sometimes treat the idea of having a specific faith like the idea of dating the ugly chick.  Like they make a more valid point by publicly dissing it or distancing themselves from it. Just because they claim non-belief, doesn't excuse them from social standards of conviction.

Vacation Styles of the Broke and Restless: I: The Time-share

I recently went out with this guy who was an Upper who traded vacation stories with me. Uppers devote much time flapping their gums to give the illusion of being better off than they actually are. The worst kind of Upper is borderline delusional and somehow expects no one to deduce or cross reference anything they say with what they do or who they are. They rarely look like their life or sage has afforded them the opportunities they claim to have experienced. In this case, the guy wanted to appear as a cultured, cool profligate. But I could see through his vacation lies to the spirit of his broke hustle.

Jobs I've Hated: Walmart

Of all of the customer service jobs I have suffered through in my youth, Walmart had to be the worst. There was no part I remotely could connect with to lessen the agony. Everything from the 100 ineffective customer service, department, assistant, co and store managers per store, to the people that shopped there became the dregs of my life for 6-9 hours out of my day.  Although most average public will at some point in life find themselves in this hell hole, I came to hate the base demographic that the chain holds dear. Don't get me wrong I'm no discount store snob. I also shop at Target, and will do a quick run to the dollar store. 

 Many Walmart shoppers take things to a higher level of horrible.

Annoying Clothing Habits

Everybody has committed a fashion faux pas at some point in their lives. There are outfits we would not dare to consider for a variety of reasons: body type mis-match, color, cut,  fadd-ishness, hell- general whackness reason enough to hate someones gear. Sometimes one might not appreciate how culture, features, or age appropriateness make an article look on an individual.  Here are a few things I have hated  in my life (not necessarily at the same time).

Leather Jackets w/ Tassels- Good for bikers (some), horrible for average Joe's in sneakers
Classic cut jeans- this high waist with no ass room only looks marginally ok on old white ladies.
Super Saggy jeans- who still wears this?
Skinny jeans on men -especially on black guys

Dingy boxers prominently displayed with saggy jeans
